Elections will Continue in Nigeria Come Hell or High Water!

20042007

Just a quick update on the Nigerian elections. The coalition of Opposition parties that was formed after Muhhamadu Buhari, one of the opposition candidates, called a meeting of all candidates in the midst of allegations of electoral fraud, has now called for the postponement of Saturday’s elections. The Federal Government today promised that elections will go ahead as scheduled on Saturday and a new president will be sworn in on May 29th, regardless of opposition complaints.
